Engulfed, sight was dimmed
Heavy fog obfuscating
Chilly murkiness
———-
Thick like a pea soup
Squinting, difficult to see
Suspended droplets

Plant a man
Watch him grow
Does he grow fast
or does he grow slow
A vegetarian …
I’d say so
Look at his face, he looks like a grump
I would too with those bumps
Horns on his head holding up trees
Pull off a leaf and he will sneeze
He sits all day inside his pot
He’d better take care before he rots.

Looking out into the dark night
Wanting to escape, knowing it was right
Longing to see her family
Perhaps she should cause a calamity
If she left she’d be tracked
If found she’d be attacked
Brought here many years ago
For reasons many didn’t want to know
The woman that brought her here
Knew not what she’d endear
Planning her great escape
Before she was again raped

Gazing out window
Watching life passing them by
Wondering outcome
=================
Dolls in a window
For all passers-by to see
Little girls behold
================
Window to our lives
So much passes before us
Not missing anything
================
Wanting to escape
Too far to jump to be free
Someone will see us
==============
